Doraemon Movie 05: Nobita no Makai Daibouken

Perfect movie.
Perfect story, deep, emotional, action XD
Great scenarios and characters...

Simply amazing :D
Just go for it.

Miyako is simply a wonderful character and she makes this movie absolutely exciting and loving with her sweet gentle nature.
So far this is the best of Doraemon movies i've seen, it even made me cry at the end ;_; I wish there was more anime like this.

since I watched the remake before it kinda ruined this movie. I didn't think it was absolutely horrible I just thought the remake was better in many different ways.

There were some unnecessary scenes that made it a bit hard to watch.

Medusa's character design was scary but horrible. In this movie Medusa was such a side character that only appeared once and did nothing while in the remake she was an important character.

I really like the character design of the main villain and of course Miyoko.

It is kinda sad how I didn't get to see the backstory for Miyoko but I believe that ... even though this movie wasn't perfect the story still shines through for it not to be a 1.

I also do love the foreshadowing and the magic concept!

I'm also a strict rater sometimes so please don't hate because this is my opinion in the end.
I hope this was helpful to people.

Doraemon the Movie: Nobita's Great Adventure into the Underworld is a slight step up from the previous Doraemon film, though it still fails to pass the threshold for what I consider to be average. This time around, Doraemon and Nobita have entered in to a parallel world similar to our own but with the existence of science being replaced by magic. All is not well in this new world as demons have come and it is up to the gang to save the world, with a new character called Miyoko Mangetsu helping lead them to the demon world to fight back. The premise was a ... real strong point of the movie, enabling the establishment of an interesting alternative reality. The early scenes showcasing the differences in society were to me the main highlight of the film. Unfortunately, the film quickly devolves in to the standard romp for these films. Nothing throughout the majority of the movie really does anything to make it stand out from any other Doraemon film, with Miyoko being a bland expository character (as every new supporting character in these films are), the villains being completely paper thin without any real motives and the plot amounting to nothing but another basic battle. Really the only other aspects of this movie that I enjoyed were the time travel elements which were decently trippy for Doraemon and the appearance of Dorami (even if it was rather brief). Overall, this film may not have been the worst of Doraemon so far, but it was exceedingly standard for Doraemon and arguably sub-par as a standalone movie. Only bother watching this if you are a serious Doraemon fan.

My overall take: One of my favorite Doraemon movies, a thrilling adventure that takes some unexpected turns.

In this movie, Nobita creates a world where magic exists. He and his friends then have to fight literal demons. Out of the Doraemon films I saw when I was little, this one may well have been my favorite, and I think it still holds up very well on a rewatch. It's certainly one of the most thrilling adventures in the series, with an eerie mystery set up at the beginning of the story and a couple of potentially surprising twists and turns in the plot.

There are still quibbles ... one can raise with the story, but I don't think they severely detract from the enjoyment of watching this movie. If anything does bother me about this film though, it's the tasteless recurring "gag" that Nobita's magic only works when it's to sneak a peek under Shizuka's skirt...
